Seeds

  1. Essential Oils: The seeds are particularly rich in essential oils, including:
    • Carvone: The major component, responsible for the characteristic aroma and flavor of caraway seeds. It has digestive, carminative, and antispasmodic properties.
    • Limonene: A monoterpene with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potential anticancer properties.
    • Carveol: Exhibits antifungal and antibacterial activities.
    • Dihydrocarvone: Contributes to the flavor and has antimicrobial properties.

    • Quercetin: Known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
    • Kaempferol: Another antioxidant that helps in reducing oxidative stress.
  3. Phenolic Acids:
    • Caffeic Acid: Has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties.
    • Chlorogenic Acid: Known for its antioxidant and antimicrobial activities.
  4. Fatty Acids:
    • Oleic Acid: A monounsaturated fat with anti-inflammatory benefits.
    • Linoleic Acid: An essential fatty acid with anti-inflammatory and skin health benefits.
